You ever just have one of those days?

Post by neist »

Ever have a day where everything seems to go wrong? I mean everything?

Today I got into a car wreck which was my fault, so I have no car now, and after a long day of limping around with an injured knee trying to get all of that paperwork worked out, I came home looking for some gaming to get my mind off of things.

Turn my Xbox on and got my very first RRoD. Nice. There goes the arcade cabinet fund. Ticket, Xbox, and insurance deductible. There may be incoming sales threads in the near future.

Bah!

Today I found out that Neanderthal womenz could toss any off us around like swinging a cat by the tail. It's true I read it on the internet

Some times you can reach into a bag of tits and pull out a dick.

depending on when you bought it this could be a blessing in disguise. my brother's died with 5 days left on the warranty, and now he's got a good one.

Sucks to hear that man, my sympathies! But you know, when god closes a door he opens a window. I have absolutly no idea what that means though.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Actually just went online and registered my console for the first time, and they didn't seem to argue my Xbox being broke. They even state how much the fix will cost, which is $0. Yay. Now just to wait forever for its return. It must be newer than 3 years old, as that's the length of the extended warranty.

And so help me, I'm going to buy me my arcade cabinet, even if I have to sell off half of my collection! :evil: My horrid luck will not stop me.

Well yesterday the vet phoned me to say that someone had kicked the shit out of my cat and it was in there with a fucked-up leg, bill is standing at £200 so far. Then the car sprang a fuel leak, plus it needs a cam. I tried out my DC for the first time in months last night and found the shitty UK cases have scratched the shit out of some games that now won't work and my official HoTD light gun is borked. Not a good day...

My favourite GP quote is "I blame sexy children", when the discussion was on lolis and pedophiles. :mrgreen:

Damn, I don't even remember that one. Hopefully I'm not on trial any time soon.

Sorry to hear about the bad day neist.

My favourite GaijinPunch quote was the one about Lets Go Jungle.

Everyday is one of those days.

Tomorrow's my birthday, so i'll make sure to get high or something to not get extra depressed about things.

There's a reason alcohol exists.

I'm experimenting with its purpose right now actually.

Alcohol usually makes me even more depressed, while puffing just makes me contemplative and emotional.

Try to remember that you are alive, your knee will get better, it's just a car, and sometimes setbacks really are blessings in disguise - taking a few steps back usually helps when leaping forward onto the next loop... like rank management in Garegga.

Yeah- stuff will get better. I've been there a few times with the car stuffs- but on the bright side it's a good excuse to eventually get another car :)

And don't listen to the guy above me- do not suicide to make things easier- it won't work here :P

Because of my current financial situation, getting another car is impossible.

Which is bad, because my wife depends on it for her job. : \
